My friends & I have stayed at several properties for our annual girls reunion over 20 years and we all agreed this was the best so far. We really enjoyed sitting on the patio and playing a game with a beautiful view. The host was very interactive and helpful. The kitchen was excellent and well equipped. We also, loved seeing all the natural wildlife. Walking to town could be a bit of a challenge if not in fairly good shape.

The house was beautifully decorated and everything was exactly as displayed in the pictures. It is conveniently located to town, but very private with wooded surroundings. The kitchen was very well equipped. The host was very responsive and helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much and would stay again! Definitely a 10.

This is a perfect cottage to stay in for you visit to The Highlands. Our host was friendly, helpful, and quick to respond to any questions we had. The house is charming with comfy beds, couches, and chairs. The kitchen is well equipped for all cooking needs. The Solo fire pit on the deck was a cozy spot to visit with one another in the evenings. Highly recommend.

Great house, great location, beautiful view, comfy beds. My only suggestion would be to please get better curtains for the sliding door in the primary bedroom. They don’t close all the way and let lots of light in early in the morning, had to hang towels to cover gaps

Family Wedding weekend

The house was perfect for our weekend stay. We appreciated that each bedroom had its own bathroom. On our first morning there were k-cups available and coffee filters for auto drip coffee. The kitchen was well stocked. The owners were accommodating when we needed something. Thank you for making our trip easy!

The property is in a great location, it's very clean and very well stocked. We enjoyed the views of the deck along with the solo fire pit. One thing,the driveway is tricky so pay attention to the directions the owner gives you.

Excellent location — beautiful, comfortable home

We chose this beautifully appointed home for a getaway weekend — it was perfect! Super comfortable beds, really well equipped kitchen, updated bathrooms, and tons of lounging space for connecting. Appreciated being able to use the garage. Missed the fact that the indoor fireplaces are not working—only drawback for me. Excellent communication with the host. Definitely 5 stars!
